Staff were excellent, breakfast had a great selection. Room was great, just one minor complaint is that the lighting in the room wasn't very bright.

TTC Imperial Hotel
I had a wonderful stay here. The location was amazing. Best of all was Van Duc who went out of his way to ensure I was able to see the tombs and the pagoda on my very short time frame. His help and service was exceptional!
